It not only helps you manage incoming calls but also enables you to manage Caller ID in the system, the time-zone, and set up to 10 rules to have the system perform tasks such as: forward all calls, receive faxes, or receive voice messages on selected days at selected time-slots.

Strengthen Your Business International Presence

This feature allows you to strengthen your business presence worldwide. If you have your business spread in multiple locations in different time zones, then you can route calls according to your working hours. For example-If you have sales associates in both China and US that come under different time zones, then you can easily transfer the incoming call of your client or your customer after business hours in the US to your sales associate in China during business hours there and answer the call without missing it.

Direct Calls to Your VoiceMail and Mobile Phone

Furthermore, this feature also allows you to direct calls to your VoiceMail and mobile phone. This is great for individuals who are running a one man army business or love to stay connected to their friends. For example- If you are not available at office, or you don’t have your mobile with you, the incoming call will be directed to your voicemail-allowing you to get back to the caller immediately.
